THE GARDEN

The lower garden is the ideal place to have an evening cocktail or to simply relax under the gigantic araucaria tree (an evergreen coniferous tree – Araucaria angustifolia). It is a formal topiary garden where there are several types of roses, a collection of “succulent” plants and some archeological pieces.

From this garden, bordered by a large cistern, you can access the “patio”, a cobblestone Alentejo corridor, where meals can be served, and then from there, you can go up to the so-called “upper garden”, which has a heated swimming pool, next to an old dovecote, and various relaxation areas.

There are various types of fruit trees; an organic vegetable garden, for home consumption; a barbecue with a nice view of the church and the castle and another dining area, under pergola where you can have meal outside, surrounded by citrus fragrances and different shades of green.
